Maildrop must be run as the uid/gid of the user whose mailbox it is
|
|
delivering to.
|
|
|
|
Therefore, if the MTA does not spawn it with the correct uid/gid, it
|
|
needs to be suid root to perform the operation itself.
|
|
|
|
The port is installed with the suid bit stripped by default. This works
|
|
out-of-the-box with MTAs like qmail, which spawn maildrop with the
|
|
correct uid/gid it needs to perform the delivery.
|
|
|
|
For more information, please read the documentation in
|
|
${PREFIX}/share/doc/maildrop/INSTALL.
|
|
It should be safe to enable the suid bits, but scan over the code first
|
|
and satisfy yourself that there are no security holes.
|
|
|
|
If you perform a full audit, please inform <ports@openbsd.org> and the
|
|
suid bit may then be enabled by default.
|
|
|
|
The following files will need suid re-enabled if you so choose:
|
|
${PREFIX}/bin/maildrop
|
|
${PREFIX}/bin/lockmail
